What he said. ;) I use a combination of Listeners, Maps, and Ehcache (http://ehcache.sourceforge.net/). As far as the rest of the app knows, it's just a Map. But actually the contents of the Map might expire and be re-loaded, invisibly (other than the request taking a bit longer). This lets me cache large objects while the user is clicking around, and then they just go away without my having to remember to remove them from session scope. (My session timeout is longer than I necessarily want those objects hanging around.) -- Wendy Smoak --------------------------------------------------------------------- To unsubscribe, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED] For additional commands, e-mail: [EMAIL PROTECTED]
